Clear as Mud—Part 4

Clear as Mud—Part 4

The gospel can be confusing. What exactly should be included in the presentation of it? What does God require of us to receive forgiveness of our sins? How do we receive the gift of eternal life? Our current series, Clear as Mud, will answer these questions and more. No message is more important than the gospel—so, let’s clear it up.

You're invited to express your faith today with a simple prayer, like the following:
God, I believe that the Risen Lord Jesus Christ is your Son and that He died in my place and for my sins. Today, I am trusting in you alone for the forgiveness of my sins and the gift of eternal life. Thank you for adopting me into your family! Amen.
When you believed in Jesus, you became God’s child forever.
When you don't feel close:
Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. - James 4:8a
When you mess up:
If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. - 1 John 1:9
When you worry:
My sheep hear My voice, I know them, and they follow Me. I give them eternal life, and they will never perish—ever! No one will snatch them out of My hand. My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all. No one is able to snatch them out of the Father’s hand. The Father and I are one. - Matthew 10:27-30
When you believed in Jesus, you became God' s child forever.
